Healthy Turkey Burgers

This Healthy Turkey Burgers recipe comes to us courtesy of God’s Love We Deliver, a New York-based organization that delivers meals to people incapacitated by illness.These burgers are quick to cook and make a great, heart-healthy way to get a burger fix. Apple replaces egg as a binder. Be sure to cook your burgers through, especially if you are on chemo.

Preparation

1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and shape into four patties.

2. Heat a large skillet on medium and coat with cooking spray.

3. Add the turkey patties and cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway, until browned on both sides and no longer pink in the center. Serve on a bun with lettuce, tomato, and onions (see Ann’s Tips). We love Rudi’s Organic Bakery 100% Whole Wheat Bun.

Ann's Tips and Tricks

If you are going through chemo and want to have some greens with your burger, instead of lettuce and tomatoes, garnish it with a some wilted spinach, and perhaps a slice or two of roasted red peppers.
